About

More than a hundred years ago, the Cullen family of New Richmond started a tradition of compassionate service and quality funeral care.

ROBERT CREA

Today, Robert Crea carries on the Cullen legacy by serving families from all faiths and secular traditions in New Richmond and the St. Croix Valley with respect, dignity and friendship.

Each life is unique, so is each life lived.

A wedding, the birth of a baby, a college graduation, a first home, a 50th anniversary … these are the celebrations of life …irreplaceable, intimate and memorable. A funeral should be no exception.

A funeral is a powerful and meaningful acknowledgement of life. CullenCrea Funeral Home is committed to helping your family honor the life of your loved one with a celebration of life ceremony that reflects their personality and spirit. Robert Crea is known for building long-lasting, trusting relationships with families and providing the highest level of personal service.

Whether the gathering is held at the CullenCrea Funeral Home or at another location of the family’s choice, Robert minimizes unnecessary burdens by seeing that all the arrangements go as planned …freeing the bereaved to be with family and friends for comfort and support.

CREA FAMILY : MARY, ROBERT, AMY, EMILY, ANNA, KIP AND MARLEY

CullenCrea Funeral Home is family owned and operated. When Robert and his wife Mary purchased the funeral home in 2001, their heartfelt philosophy was to conduct their business, “as one family helping other families in their time of need.”

Being a Funeral Director is a sensitive vocation by any standard. Robert Crea possesses inherent personal skills …empathy, compassion, thoughtfulness… that can’t be taught and that give families peace of mind in their time of loss.

Known as a nurturer and someone who genuinely cares about the families he helps, it’s the personal connection, the attention to the smallest details, and going the extra mile that sets Robert apart from other funeral directors.

Robert Crea is licensed in both Wisconsin and Minnesota. He lives with his wife, three daughters and two dogs in nearby Stillwater, Minnesota.
